Cleaning floorboards before laying carpet.

Using this method we worked our way along each floorboard and finally wiped away any residue with clean water. We made sure to let the floor dry completely before laying the new vinyl tiles. I am laying carpet in the basement this week. You were right to replace the carpet and pad but urine soaked through the old carpet and pad and into the wooden subfloor.

For a couple nights and the floor is fairly clean now. Once you have measured asked for estimates and chosen a new carpet you must remove the old carpet. Hi guys i need to fix three bedroom floors in a victorian house circa 1890 before carpet is laid. In each room there are gaps around the skirting main bedroom has most of these filled but looks unsightly with cracks etc.

It worked so well and all the smell was gone after just one application. After you allow the floor to dry out seal it with a subfloor sealer. Our realtor is worried about the dog smell and would like us to clean the particle board before the new carpet is installed. The drywall mud tape guy and the guy who sprayed the ceiling left an absolute mess on the floor.

The best floor sealer for pet urine is a stain blocking primer. Is there any way to clean particle board flooring once the carpet is pulled up we have three dogs inside the house. The care that you take with flooring preparation will help your new carpet to last as long as possible. It s has a quality carpet pad and will be on top of concrete.

The odor you smell is from the crystallized urine in the impregnated wood. We are getting ready to install new carpet as we are selling our house. Do not use a house vacuum as chunks of plaster wood chips or staples could irreparably damage it. Many homes replace their carpet approximately every 10 to 15 years.

Another has a few filled and the remaining one has none filled. Deodorizing a subfloor that has been soaked with pet urine requires a two step approach.
